Catch! TinyPing Season 7 premieres Nov. 18 on JEI TV and Disney+, with PLAVE OST and T-nyz idol unit
SAMG Entertainment's 'Jewel Star Catch! TinyPing' hits screens November 18 on JEI Talent TV and Disney+, complete with a PLAVE collaboration OST and in-show idol group T-nyz.
T-nyz drops before the show even airs
Jewel Star Catch! TinyPing is the seventh season of SAMG Entertainment's kids animation franchise. It premieres November 18 at 7 PM on JEI Talent TV, then at 8 PM the same evening on Disney+. Twenty episodes. Eleven minutes each.
SAMG moved fast. The music and music video for in-show idol group T-nyz (티니즈) dropped October 22—a full month before broadcast. The group pulls four franchise characters into K-pop territory: HachupingㆍLemonPingㆍCherryPingㆍLimePing, reimagined as an idol act inside the show's world.
PLAVE on the OST, Emotion Festival at the center
Romi and a new set of Royal TinyPings hunt for the missing Legend TinyPing while staging the Emotion Festival, a music festival in Emotion Kingdom. That festival becomes the spine of the whole season's content strategy.
K-pop group PLAVE handled the OST track Heart Stage (하트 스테이지). PLAVE introduced it themselves during their official Weverse live in September. SAMG is leaning hard on this collaboration as one of the season's major pillars. The franchise has now introduced 153 character types across its run.
A SAMG Entertainment official described the season as "characterized by organically connecting the story centered on Emotion Festival, K-pop artist collaboration, and nationwide offline events."
Popup stores at 7 Hyundai Premium Outlet locations
Offline, SAMG is running popup stores at seven locations nationwide in partnership with Hyundai Premium Outlets. Gimpo opened October 15. The tour then moves through Daejeon, Busan, Songdo, Daegu, Cheongju, and Space One, running through March next year.
Each stop has a large Hachupingㆍballoon, a themed stage, a photo zone, a TinyPing Singalong event, and character photo time sessions.
